Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 340

Chapter 340 Make Up Her Mind

Colton wasn’t surprised at all after he heard Nicole’s confession. Gazing upon her, he asked immediately, “How confident are you about my grandpa’s surgery?”

“Fifty-fifty,” Nicole answered him with certainty.

After hearing that, he squinted his eyes to show displeasure. “Isn’t that the same as what Pierre said before?”

At once, she shook her head decisively. Thinking about Pierre’s medical malpractice, she curled her lips into a smirk when she talked about him. “Pierre is someone who likes to boast about his medical expertise. Yeah, his medical skills aren’t bad. Still, it can’t change the fact that he doesn’t go easy on the dosage. That’s why his way of medical practice isn’t suitable for the elderly and children.”

In order to allow Benedict to undergo his surgery, Colton had specifically done a thorough background check on Pierre. Therefore, just like Nicole, Colton was surely aware of Pierre’s medical malpractices.

“Nicole, I believe in you.”

Nicole reached out her hand and massaged her temples upon hearing that. Deep down, she thought, I have already given my words in front of Mrs. Gardner and Olivia. For that, this is a surgery I must take on, regardless.

“Thanks. Well then, I’m afraid I can’t go to Gardner Corporation and work these few days. So, allow me to ask for your permission to take a leave of absence first.”

Colton gave her his endorsement with a nod. Then, he placed his hand on her shoulder as if to encourage her. “Take your time to get prepared, and tell me at any time if you need anything.”

She nodded lightly. After that, she lowered her head before she wore a wry smile while fixing her gaze on the floor. Mr White, sorry for letting you down. This time, I must pick up the scalpel once again, but I still hope you won’t be too disappointed.

Letting her thoughts wander in her mind, Nicole recalled the scene where she followed White to rescue people a few years ago. She could still vividly remember the feeling at that time. It was almost like we were in a tug-of-war with the God of Death. We couldn’t even afford to rest for a second.

After seething deep in her thoughts for a while, she decided to cast them aside. Then, she stood up. “It’s getting late, so I think I’m not going to stay here much longer. President Gardner, I’ll head back home first.”

Colton agreed and bid her goodbye. “Very well. You may leave first.”
